Itchy Coo’s first publication specifically for babies and very young children, KATIE’S COO is a delightful board book containing some much-loved traditional Scots rhymes along with a few that are less well-known. Parents and grandparents will enjoy singing or chanting the words to babies and toddlers, while the bairns will love the combination of Scots words and sounds with the bright and simple illustrations by award-winning artist Karen Sutherland (Animal ABC, A Moose in the Hoose, Eck the Bee). Rhymes featured include favourites like The Three Craws, Katie Bairdie, Wee Willie Winkie and Ally Bally Bee.

Developed in consultation with Craigmillar Books for Babies and Scottish Book Trust, KATIE’S COO is a safe, fun introduction for young children to easy Scots rhymes.
